xfs: add the zoned space allocator

For zoned RT devices space is always allocated at the write pointer, that
is right after the last written block and only recorded on I/O completion.

Because the actual allocation algorithm is very simple and just involves
picking a good zone - preferably the one used for the last write to the
inode.  As the number of zones that can written at the same time is
usually limited by the hardware, selecting a zone is done as late as
possible from the iomap dio and buffered writeback bio submissions
helpers just before submitting the bio.

Given that the writers already took a reservation before acquiring the
iolock, space will always be readily available if an open zone slot is
available.  A new structure is used to track these open zones, and
pointed to by the xfs_rtgroup.  Because zoned file systems don't have
a rsum cache the space for that pointer can be reused.

Allocations are only recorded at I/O completion time.  The scheme used
for that is very similar to the reflink COW end I/O path.
